Behind The Lens

Location

The location was Geitner Park a public park in Hickory, North Carolina.

Time

This photo was taken mid-day, I don't fully recall but it was probably around 12pm or 1pm.

Lighting

It's just the natural lighting of the park, I love natural light just because it's everywhere and it's simple to work with. The only other thing that help the photo achieve the look is me bouncing the natural with the white side of a refactor.

Equipment

I don't have fancy Gears but these are the equipment I use for this photo. Camera - Canon T7i Lens - 50mm f/1.8 Reflector - Neewer 43in Reflector 5in1 Collapsible

Inspiration

This photo was really just me experimenting and trying new things to improve my portrait photos.

Editing

Just a little bit of color adjustments with Adobe Lightroom.

In my camera bag

I always carry my Camera with the 50mm and use it as a point and shoot. but other lens I carry is a old canon 24mm lens, Tamron 14mm, and a Sigma Art 85mm

Feedback

Don't be afraid to try to new thing and experiment, even if they don't come out well. Definitely shoot multiple angels form one subject. For posing a model keep thing relaxed, this is also depending on the photographer but I personally love having the hands near the subjects face because it help the view focus on the face.
